Guacamelee! Games Ported on Amazon Luna
DrinkBox Studios
While working at Drinkbox Studios, we decided to publish Guacamelee! STCE and Guacamelee! 2 on Amazon’s LUNA cloud streaming service Me and my colleague Kyle were tasked with this, so two of us were modifying the existing code of Guacamelee! games to make sure that they could run on Amazon LUNA machines.
Apart from configuring C++ projects to properly compile and launch, I was also configuring the store pages, populating them with pictures, text, meta-data, and other information about the game. I really love how it turned out in the end; now you can play the famous Guacs on streaming service!
To be frank, this was the first time I’ve ever played both games from top to bottom. Multiple times. I never knew that first Guacamelee! could be so challenging yet rewarding.
